6 months ago, I bought CopyCopter from @ky__zo through Acquire for a mid 4-figure amount. MRR was super low, but I saw potential. Scaled it up, added more features, grew the revenue, and sold it for 7x what I originally paid.
Not bad for 6 months of grinding.
Had to sell earlier than planned, cash urgency & the reality that B2C AI startups are tough to raise money for. Most investors want SaaS with predictable B2B revenue.
Now gearing up for my first AI B2B startup. 🚀
Huge thanks to @Necmttn , @osmeoz, @dari_codes for the dev work, and @vvschiesser + CS team for handling content & customers. Couldn’t have done it without you guys.
Also, shoutout to @acquiredotcom @agazdecki, who made buying & selling a SaaS business a smooth process.
This journey was full of lessons:
• AI video space is hyper-competitive now 🏎️🔥
• Most investors won’t touch B2C AI SaaS 🚫💰
• Sometimes, an early exit is better than chasing funding 💨🏃♂️
• Always trust your gut when choosing buyers 🤝🔍
Excited for what’s next. On to the next one. 🚀🔥
